#nano /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
You will find…
# ============================================================= # Network Interface Script generated by BareMetal # ============================================================= DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=STATIC ONBOOT=yes IPADDR=216.55.xx.xx NETMASK=255.255.255.0 HWADDR=6C:62:xx:xx:xx:C3
Change this line only to the new IP
IPADDR=216.55.xx.xx

Save the file and restart
# service network restart
